Help - what qualifies as an InfoGraphic? Did I really break an InfoGraphic rule?

    Hey guys - so I am on Digg where an infographic that I created is on there, and there is this whole discussion about how my infographic sucks because ... I don't totally understand their argument - because it is just a graphic with a list or something? I actually thought my infographic was pretty nice, I mean it is not like the best and I am not saying that it is, but I thought it would make people chuckle and smile ...

    Please take a look and see this guy's comments and tell me if you think I did something wrong, what are the guidelines, because it is not like there is an InfoGraphic police that is going to come get me for breaking a rule that I did not know existed so what gives?!

    If I think this guy is just like some kind of jerk, am I right in thinking that? WTH? I thought the Internet was supposed to be like free reign to express oneself?

    Thanks for letting me vent - I am going to go find something to get my creative juices going and get motivated to make another infographic that sucks LOL

    You should have posted this on "Reviews" forum.

    That thing you have made is visually nice but not an infographic. The comment was right, its just bullet points. You can call that a flyer or a poster. But you dont present your facts graphically. Its just text with numbers and the background image. I wish I uploaded my infographic to my website, so you could check. However you can always go to google and search for the term.

    Sorry man. At least its visually nice :)
